1 2019 Supplemental Drug List This supplemental drug list was updated on August For more recent information or other questions, please contact Blue Cross Medicare Advantage Customer Service, at or, for TTY users, 711, 8 a.m. 8 p.m., local time, 7 days a week. If you are calling from April 1 through September 0, alternate technologies (for example, voic ) will be used on weekends and holidays. PLEASE READ: THIS DOCUMENT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT THE DRUGS WE COVER IN THIS PLAN Y0096_BEN_GRP_SDL01_19NR_C

2 Your plan includes a supplemental drug benefit that provides coverage for a number of drugs that are excluded from coverage under the Medicare Part D program. You will pay your tier copay for drugs on this list. You can find the cost for each drug tier by checking the benefit chart in your Evidence of Coverage. Since supplemental drugs are excluded from the Part D program, the amount you spend on supplemental drugs generally does not count toward your Part D true out-of-pocket (TrOOP) expenses. These drugs do not qualify for lower Part D catastrophic copays. In addition, if you receive extra help to pay for your prescriptions, you will not get extra help to pay for these drugs. This is not a complete list of drugs covered by your plan. For the full list of your covered Part D drugs, please refer to your formulary or call customer service for additional questions. Some covered drugs may have additional requirements or limits on coverage. These requirements and limits may include: QL = Quantity Limits ii
